Death of Aaron

22 Now the children of Israel, the whole congregation, journeyed from aKadesh band came to Mount Hor.  
23 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor by the border of the land of Edom, saying:
24 “Aaron shall1 be agathered to his people, for he shall not enter the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against My word at the water of Meribah.  
25 aTake Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;  
26 and strip Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; for Aaron shall be gathered to his people and die there.”
27 So Moses did just as the Lord commanded, and they went up to Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 aMoses stripped Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; and bAaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.  
29 Now when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, all the house of Israel mourned for Aaron athirty days.

Numbers 20:23

And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron - So these two dear brothers must part! Aaron must die first: but Moses is not likely to be long after him. So that it is only for a while, a little while, that they are separated.
